"Deep, intense ruby red color with fresh and clean aromas of red fruits. On the palate the wine has good texture from soft tannins, acidity from traditional grapes, juiciness and softness from international grapes." —winemaker

"Premium blackberries blended with fine brandy and seasoned to the Polish taste for Old World shots and cocktails." —producer

"Very floral on the nose with wonderful citrus notes; more citrus on the palate with loads of honey and then turning quite herbal on the finish. An incredibly different and inviting array of aromas and flavors when water is added!" —producer

"The barrels that went into this small batch combined to make an amazing drinker. Nose - Beautiful layering of brandied cherry over a mildly tart cherry. It opens up with time and is reminiscent of cutting into your dessert with your fork which releases cinnamon and baking spices with just a hint of oak to remind you that this is high proof youthful. Palette - A robust rye with dark cherry, burnt vanilla, and spices for days. It's a delicious rye with a weighty mouthfeel. Balance - It's insanely well balanced with the alcohol so perfectly integrated at 115 proof you'll forget its there, but you'll find yourself smiling more and happier with each dram. Finish - the finish is long and the spices dominate this batch, while the cherry does punch its way through to the surface." —producer
